Seven Stories Underground Lyrics

Heaven-
So fine
Heaven-
It's quite a climb
From seven stories undergroud
Black mistress gonna crack that whip
When I sleep I'm never found
But my baby she don't take no lip

My Cinderella carryin' me
And my shot blood thru the Afterglow
Ah, slap me to my knees-
Which direction, baby, I don't know

Oh, Heaven
It's quite a climb
It's quite a climb
Oh, Heaven
It's hard to climb
It's hard to climb, you know

I feel a sickness comin' down-
Cold fever wanna snuff my kick
Early morning, not a sound-
Chased thru the Quarter with a whippin' stick

Black dog keeps a followin' me-
And my tether just won't let me go
Blackbirds chatter in the trees-
What they're sayin', baby I don't know-

Oh, Heaven
It's quite a climb
It's quite a climb
Oh, Heaven
It's hard to climb
It's hard to climb, you know
